Oh my!

Through out my life I have realized that it is better to laugh at yourself rather than get upset and embarrassed. As my family knows I do many things that are really embarrassing but funny to everyone else. So yesterday I went to Target and as I went to the checkout I remembered that I had cash so I thought I would use it. The total came to be about $25.00. I only had a twenty so I asked her if I could pay part of it in cash and she said yes. So for the last little bit I swiped my card and entered my pin. The next question was would you like cash back. As I looked at it I thought yeah, I owe my roommate money so I better get cash back. So I hit twenty dollars. The lady started laughing and asked me if I wanted my twenty back. I just realized what I had done! I laughed, took the twenty, and practically ran out of the store.

Christmas

Last night my roommates and I decorated our apartment for Christmas. I know its a little early but we couldnt wait another day. I love the feel of Christmas. So sticking with the Christmas theme I thought I would let everyone enjoy one of my favorite Christmas songs and Josh Groban does a great job. Click here and enjoy!

Why Me?

The other day I was on campus and I recognized a good friend that I hadn’t seen in almost a year. Deciding to surprise him I ran up behind him and practically attacked him. As he turned around my smile quickly turned into horror. It wasn’t my friend! It was a complete stranger! I apologized and practically ran away. I still get embarrassed when I think about it.

Quote of the Day

"But... I really wanted to see you, and...and I think you're beautiful, and I, um...I feel really warm when I am around you, and, um, my tongue swells up. So... Do you wanna go eat food?"

Can you guess what movie its from?

Poetry

I joined a poetry club today and Im really excited about it. Everyday there is a new topic and you write a poem on it. The best part is you can make up a username so you can be anonymous. Dont worry Im not going to post my poems everyday but I thought I would share my first poem. Todays topic was painting. Oh and please dont expect anything great. Im definitely working on my poetry writing skills.

Ive been working on a painting of mine
I hope to see the finish results someday
It isn't perfect and never will be
But Ill love it all the same
Sometimes my painting stops
And I don't know what should come next
Even though this painting of mine isn't visible
I see it everyday
I hope one day someone will want to share
This painting of mine I call life.

This is such a cute song and Michael Buble is just adorable. Click here to listen to it!

IM GOING HOME FOR THANKSGIVING!!! YAY!

Sleepy

You know youre tired when...

• you sleep 12 hours without waking up once or moving an inch
• when your dreams are about sleeping
• when you cry for no reason
• when you cant remember turning off your alarm when it goes off in the morning and you sleep through your classes
• when you go to your classes and sleep through them
• when you HAVE to take a nap to make it through the day

My job is becoming more difficult for me with school. I am always tired. I always want to take a nap and usually end up falling asleep in my classes. Im excited for Thanksgiving so I can have the chance to catch up on my sleep.

Running

I just finished with my first run today. I know I said I was going to start a couple of weeks ago but the hardest part of starting anything for me is the beginning. Take writing a paper for a class. Ill procrastinate starting it but once I start I realize that its really not that bad. Anyways, I went on my first run today and I thought I was going to die. As I was running my two miles I realized how out of shape I am. After five minutes I could hardly breath but I wouldnt let myself stop. Even though my legs were shaking, my lungs were burning, and I could hardly breath I kept pushing myself. When I finished my run I dropped to the ground and stayed there for fifteen minutes. Its amazing what running can do for you. When I run I have complete control over everything. I decide if Im going to stop and walk, how far Im going to go, what music I listen to, whether I run outside or inside. I also love how running can make me forget about everything. I turn on my ipod, forget about everything going on in my life and just run. Its great. And now that my run is done I feel great and I cant wait to do it again tomorrow. Here I come half marathon!

Hairspray

My roommate and I just finished watching Hairspray. Whenever I watch a musical it makes me wish my life was a musical. I would love it if I could just start singing whenever I wanted and I had backup singers and dancers. Who wouldnt want that? Heres one of my favorites songs from Hairspray. Click here to listen to it!
